 * I am developing a custom theme where i have a sidebar.php file and am calling
   it on the page using the get_sidebar method. But now i want to add another sidebar
   and call it in another section of the page, what should i name the file and which
   method should i use to call it?
    Any help will be much appreciated, thanks.
